Aniam (Hebrew: <templatestyles src="Script/styles_hebrew.css" />אֲנִיעָם‎) is an Israeli settlement, a moshav, located in the Golan Heights, under the administration of Israel. The settlement was built in 1978 and falls under the municipal jurisdiction of the Golan Regional Council. In 2014 it had a population of 526.

The international community considers Israeli settlements in the Golan Heights illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[2]

Etymology

The name Ani'am is derived from a member of the Menashe tribe (2 Chronicles 7:19), whose tribal area included the Golan Heights.
